chobo: yea,agree with u..the CF is too shiny on 1:18...thanks for ur info ^^
geeamino: whoops,never realize premium classixxx got white color on SLS..nice car,the price is around 1k rite?

It's the GT5 version McLaren F1. Played it before. Very ugly la. haha

And indeed. Seen a 1/1 scale LP670-4 before and its CF really like that. Even the rear spoiler, from far looks like matte, from near you could see the CF textures.

Whoa! So Many Poison! =D

yeah wei, after cny so many poison somore.. angpau all have to invest there ! lol btw happy chinese new year everyone!!

anyone got any BIB Maisto SLS to let go with a reasonable price?

how much is the "reasonable" price you mean?

And then you got an Autoart 1/18 Silver Nissan Skyline R34 to let go too or not? hehe

lolss u got arr!

Ah... So you bought it from NewAce? Nice since it's limited to 20 and specially made for NewAce if I'm not wrong.

Anyway, I'm not too enthusiastic about the colour. For me, I associate Arthemis Green with the Lambo. For the 458, I actually prefer pure white with the silver rims.

Ok, anyway after seeing your post, I went out and bought one in Fuji White and took some photos of it yesterday morning.







Like you, I also try to avoid the conventional red colour on Ferraris except if no choice lah.

No problem. So have you made up your mind yet? If you're in doubt, get both.


No idea. Waiting for lkwanz to send the normal Elite Scuderia.

Anyway, just guessing... From what I can see from the Super Elite FXX vs Elite FX, there's more carbon fibre decals, more tampos and engine bay has more wires. The wiper is also more refined on the Super Elite.

Wahlau... Thanks for the poison !

The Sesto Elemento, LP670 and Veyron looks delicious ! Looks like BBR used the Hotwheels' 458 shell and fitted their internals inside it to display an openable resin... I mean, if they say they could do it, why did they just stop at saying about it and not produce it for sale?

Thanks for the photos chobo. Really nice reference and info.

Alamak... More poison?

I dig the 1/12 SLS. Hope Premium Classics make it affordable. Looks very good.

Like I mentioned earlier, I would love a pure white 458 with aluminum coloured rims. But WHY did Hotwheels have to associate the car with Alonso? Now, I would have to think twice about buying it.

Yup, even though I have not played GT5 before, that looks a lot like the Autoart Gran Turismo Ford GT40 in CF.

sweat u buy diecast macam no need think like that.haha salute salute!

issit out ed ? another RM 380 also from hotwheels elite ? fuh but nice...

hah...... jus go out and buy one ...... its so simple ? like buy coke and drink ya....... if wan drink then buy

Oh, I have some pics of the elite scuderia, at my blog:
http://h-hobby.blogspot.com/2009/07/ferrar...eels-elite.html

No lah. I was just kidding about the part that after seeing geeamino's 458, I terus went out to buy one for myself. Got this some time back already. How to get the item in less than 2 days when it's not available here?

Anyway, seeing geeamino's one reminded me I have yet to photograph mine. Difficult colour to capture because it's pearl off white.

If the BBR was like coke, I would not think twice buying one carton. Can invite you guys to come over to my place and each have one too.

Yes. I remember seeing it now. So it was you who had it.

Anyway, we should conduct a mini gathering amongst ourselves like what diecasters in Singapore, Thailand, Philippines, Taiwan and Hong Kong do. Perhaps do a Ferrari theme outing day where everybody would bring out only Ferrari cars to display and take photographs together. Can also do one for Merdedes theme outing day or Lamborghini theme day. Should be cool.

jchue: haha. yea. from NewAce. I actually wanted the Rosso Monza from Calsito Models but they didn't list it already...so just 2 HOURS after I bought and paid for my Arthemis Green, they list the Rosso Monza for the same price...ZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

But the pearl white is awesome! sad that the cheapest I can find is rm2k. zzzzzzz.

but please...more pics bro of that fuji white!!

On the BBR 458, because it's resin that's why they can't produce opening parts because it's almost impossible to make the resin strong enough to tahan the strain of those hinges and also cheap enough to sell to us. So it's basically...just for show. Lol.

jacky: not out yet but surely this year out. Rm380 okay la...poor people like us, cannot buy BBR white, so have to settle for the cheaper option. Lol.

and I agree that it would be cool to gather our collections but not easy because I'm sure alot not from KL.

And I got an email from Unusual43 telling me new stock has arrived for their Versus models.

Hamann Murcie




So I got excited and ask for the price...but sadly...out of my price range.

So if anyone has 1.3kUSD...you can get one of these.

Was missing from the diecast scene for quite some time, but here's an update
